More Ornamental Than Useful

more ornamental Than Useful.
Although as far back as the civil
war in the United States it was proved
beyond doubt, says the London Stand
ard, that cavalry armed with swords
had not the remotest chance of sue
cess against those armed with revol.
vers, and although almost every nation
in Europe arms it's cavealy with the lat
ter weapon, the English war office, with
even more than its usual inaptitude
and obstinacy, refuses to furnish our
cavalry with this weapon. The re.
volver is a weapon requiring much
practice to be of value, but in the hands
OF one who has mastered it's use it is
q terrible weapon. A cowboy OF New
Mexico is not regarded as a good shot,
except when riding at full speed along
a line of telegraph poles he can put g.
ball into each as he passes it; and the
result is that although the Indians
consider themselves as more than g.
match for the regular cavalry, they
will fly before a party of cowboys,
even if they outnumber them many
times, while hundred cowboys
wonld rightly consider themselves as
a. match for whole regiment of regu-
lar cavalry. The sword was an ad.
mirable weapon in the old days, but
a soldier armed with only a sword
might be as we'll unarmed altogether
were he to meet one armed with g. re-.
volver who was an adept in it's use.
